@Chris Stromdahl Good luck next week! Please let us know how it went.\

I'm really glad you posted this because I am in a similar predicamine and had a question for you...How much are you paying the lawyer for the consultation? I have no idea how much I should expect to pay for initial services, etc and do not want to get taken.

thx--Matt

@Cal C. < The price of BP is only the time you spend reading and I know it is worth it many times over.>

I think you summed it up right here. Good advice, thx!!!

What appeals to me about the program he offers is that it is a 3-day training. I think that me being so new that the "hand-holding" would be a great jump start to my learning. This is of course, if the training is as advertised...

Does anybody have experience with Todd Dotson's 3-day training? Was it worth the money? Would you do it again?

Investing strategy....The wholesaling approach is what struck a chord with me. I personally know someone who has a distress property and is willing to sell at far less than market value just to dump it, so I was thinking about that as my guinea pig.

In a perfect world, I would make a few sales wholesaling so I would have cash to close and rent for steady cash flow and/or contract the rehab work myself. I know several in the industry and could cut deals readily.

Just want to say Hi. I hope to not be a stranger, this site seems pretty great. Hopefully, I'll be able to contribute as an experienced RE investor. I'm new and been searching the net for a good place to find info. Looks like I found it. ; )

So I am brand new to RE and looking for a supplemental income, then hopefully to quit my corporate job. Because of these goals, I attended a free seminar by Todd Dotson.

The info he provided seemed logical enough, I certainly had fup questions, but the assumption that they would be answered if I signed up for his "training" program. It is a 3 day event for basically $1k, Not a huge amount to lose if it doesn't pan out, but I was wondering if anyone has gone through the training and if it was worth it. I'm torn between getting off the ground running by myself, or hoping that the promises he gave to the group will actually yield returns.....thoughts?
